-TODO: SUBSCRIPTION CHANGES DATA VOLUME
-ACTUALLY, it's not super easy to get file space used surprisingly, and also it's time consuming and disk io intensive as it has to enumerate every file
-and subdirectory one at a time, a better option is to find a way to create a fixed volume in linux dedicated to ayanova, put all the data in it 
-and use that and if they pay for more then can use a volume in a storage location.
-
-Also that means AyaNova is not having to make sure they don't crash AyaNova by using up too much space, instead, the volume is fixed and it becomes a matter of 
-checking for free space only, not counting files
-

-TODO: DOCUMENT A NEW droplet has about 21gb of free space. We could say 20 and 1 bonus but meh, 21 sounds better.
-	So this needs to be turned into a volume dedicated to data usage and maybe leave the 1gb on the /dev/vda1 and put the 20gb on the new volume purely for data storage
-	actually 21gb this is a generic setup with no data generated yet:

-TEST: cheapest storage for attachments possible, test out creating a new droplet with block storage to hold the attachment files to see if it's possible, how it's done and mapped etc

-
-private const string MAXIMUM_DATA_GB_FEATURE_NAME = "MaximumDataGB";
-If license doesn't have it and it's subscrkiption then the default is 20gb
-ATTACHMENT / DATA CAP have a maximum attachment / data cap size that can be configured for subscriptions
-	Settable from license or defaults in subscription to a known value, i.e. basically 20gb but can be overriden if paid for more!
-DB LOCATION - set location in AyaNova data folder in POSTGRES during boot new db creation process
-Should alert users via job that periodically checks for reaching limit, we will shut them down , not ayanova but 
-	Backup must check capacity and not run if getting too big to fit and send dire alerts to everyone if it can't run
-	alert once per week if between 80% and 90%
-	alert once a day if between 90% and 95%
-	close server lock out all but superuser if reaches 99% capacity, stop backup from running
